[PATCH 5.15 432/484] clocksource: Fix brown-bag boolean thinko in cs_watchdog_read()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



5.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f2655ac2c06a15558e51ed6529de280e1553c86e ]

The current "nretries > 1 || nretries >= max_retries" check in
cs_watchdog_read() will always evaluate to true, and thus pr_warn(), if
nretries is greater than 1.  The intent is instead to never warn on the
first try, but otherwise warn if the successful retry was the last retry.

Therefore, change that "||" to "&&".

Fixes: db3a34e17433 ("clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays detected")
